Joint Mobilisation

Gentle, controlled movements to restore joint mobility

What Is Joint Mobilisation?

Joint mobilisation is a gentle, hands-on technique where your physiotherapist applies controlled force to a restricted joint to improve its range of motion. It is particularly effective for stiff joints caused by arthritis, injury, or prolonged immobility.

The technique uses graded movements that range from gentle oscillations to more sustained stretches, depending on the severity of the restriction and your comfort level. It is a safe, evidence-based approach suitable for all ages.

  • Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis
  • Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis)
